ervin santana suspended 80 games for ped failure (stanozolol) #twins

Wow, old school PEDs. I don't know anyone in pro sports still using those.

Didn't see it mentioned anywhere else on the site: The Indians locked up Kluber for 5/$32.5 with two option years. Other than Kluber's age at signing, which is a big factor, it is reminiscent of Sale's contract. Kluber will turn 29 this week, whereas Sale was what, 23 when he signed his?

It's not that bad for the Twins. They save over $6 million and it's not like they had any chance to compete this year anyway.

You make a good point, but I think in general you'd like guys on 4-year deals not to get busted for steroids before they've played a game for you.

They also signed Carrasco long term. It doesn't even feel like news anymore when teams lock up players for their first 1 or 2 FA years, it's normal operating procedure.

Tigers first team since 1995 to throw shutouts in each of their first 2 games. No team that has dome this has eveer made the playoffs.

Well that seems like a useless statistic with little predictive value.

That sucks for the other teams in the division

 

If Rondon and Soria aren't healthy (they say Soria's looked pretty good SO FAR), they might be forced into making an early move.

 

Obviously, the offseason and then spring training didn't go well for the Nathan-Tigers' fans relationship.
